As a rule, roof covering surface temperatures in Temple City routinely run well above the air reading, and every material on the roof feels it. On most jobs, afternoon sun on a west-facing Temple City slope ages that side seasons ahead of the rest of the roof.
A Temple City adjuster works from the scope in front of them, which is why the contractor's report has to be thorough. We do not advise filing a Temple City claim where the harm is clearly age, given that a declined claim stays on the record. This holds across Los Angeles County. Partial claims on a Temple City roof are common and should be priced as repairs rather than inflated into replacements.
